Berator - R.A.I.D.S Demo

Labels: Boris Records

Formats: Tape/Digital

Release Date: 31 May 2018

Tracklist:

1. Sultans Of Incest

2. Swine Cult

May 2018 saw the release of the first demo from Chicago's latest black/death horde Berator. The "R.A.I.D.S" demo was released by Boris Records and while tape copies have now sold out, there's still more than enough reason to give this demo a spin. One such reason being that Berator are due to start tracking and recording their debut full-length very soon. The band features current members of fellow Boris Records band Disfigurement and also Cryptic Fog.

Berator’s sound is intense and Sultans Of Incest is a full-blown attack featuring blasting drums, relentless riffs and dual-death metal screams. It follows the old-school path that so many good USDM bands have gravitated towards of late and there’s absolutely no let up whatsoever.

The demo’s second song Swine Cult thrashes like a maniac and carries on the momentum. When Berator slows the tempo down just before the mid-way point they’re able to still retain their ferocity and make way for a great solo. as well. This demo provides a teasing glimpse into what these guys have in store on their up-coming full-length. Blast this loud and on repeat until then!
